So yeah Under the Influence is going to blow minds with: Seth, Sage, Dana Flair, Ian Macintosh, Marc Andre, Wiley Miller, Dylan Hood, Dash Long, Chris Collins, Key and plenty of other sick riders.
Anyway all of those who said that wasnt great dont know how many vertical feet he dropped in that little minute.
I know for a fact that even with serious cross-training anda bunch of kiing unde my belt, my legs would be burning and would set my ski pants on fire by the time I'd get to the bottom of msot of theses runs. geez they were steep and looked gnar.
that helmet cam is the best thing that ever happened to big mountain riding, it definatlyshos the roll over effect.
Nah Im not even commenting on that, hes just an asshole~
Oh and while they obviously target more of the big mountain BC crowd, I think ski movie companies can hardly afford to ignore such a large group of the skiing community, especially considering how many of us buy ski movies, hence park skiing in lost and found etc. Its still skiing, not all of us are 14 year old rail whores, and for those of us that are, I think we can still appreciate sick skiing no nonetheless~
^^ scott, i'm an asshole 'cause i'm tired of seeing/hearing jibbers play off big mountain riding as if its for granolas/old hippies, this is not the case whatsoever. seth is far from an old hippie eating granola, he's a punk rocker at heart...they hate hippies more than anyone.
Seth is so dope. That one double line looks gnarly, I think it's like the last or second last line. I'm so stoked on tgrs movie next year. Especially ian mcintoshs helmet cams. He's probably one of the rowdiest skiers right now. Watching him haul ass down that one spine in lost and found and then just drop 40 ft made me shit my pants.
The next person to call this gay or stupid will be personally plucked out of their terrain park, or whatever flat (compared to this) place you normally ski, and placed at the top of this and told to drop the same lines.
And if you successfully negotiate the 40 footers, spines, and front flips, then I will be flabbergasted. But if not, and I have a feeling that 98% couldn't, then please shut your e-traps because you are making fools of yourselves.
I want all you little fucks who are saying this shit is boring to watch this clip and then pause it at 2:36 and stare at that pic for a while and try to imagine that what you've been watching for the previous 2 and a half minutes is that fucking steep.
On the Dana video, the lines that start at 2:00, 2:27. ad the last one are fucking baller. especialy the one at 2:27. one of the most impressive things I have ever seen on skis. Second only to how fucking grimy Grant Domer is.
no i knew he was sarcastic...i was speaking generally to the others..but my bad for making it look like i was stupid and not putting a space or something...hah
that was sick as fuck! I wonder how long he checks out lines before skiing them. that shit is so steep and super blind, yet he just sends it. if you dont like the skiing in that vid then you most likely dont ski pow and can't appreciate it
dude, what? 80% of the people who come to Alyeska ski on flat, groomed runs that you have to skate on just to get to the bottom. Our biggest cliff is only like 20 ft, and they put safety nets in randomly in the middle of trails. I'd say the mountain as a whole is pretty damn beginner friendly.
Alyeska used to be a sick resort, but lately its turning to shit (last owner + new owner).
